"A night at Spinning Bones is all about roasted meat. The easygoing American restaurant on Park Street is where to go for heaps of pork ribs with jalapeño garum, slow-cooked pork shoulder, and rotisserie chicken paired with pickled red onions. It also checks all the boxes of a last-minute, slightly-nicer-than-casual weeknight dinner, or a weekend pork lovers’ double date—it’s easy enough to get a table without a reservation. Spend a few hours sipping on a few shiso highballs or a bottle of wine while discussing Alameda happenings with the staff. " - julia chen 1, lani conway
